Characters
- Sieg Wahrheit (German words for “Victory” and “Truth”) —the main character of the story, and a young Knight of the Dark Glyphs—; is a “Legionator”, who is able to sacrifice lost souls in order to summon creatures called Chaos Legion from alternate worlds —with the forbidden power of the darkest of Glyphs, bestowed unto him by edict of the Order—. Following the commands of the Order, Sieg and his fellow knights combined their powers to seal the “Spirit of Purification” and close the gateway to “Chaos” forever. Fighting side-by-side in battles of the past, Sieg became close friends with Victor. The Order selects Sieg to track down Victor —his former friend who has now gone rogue, when he steals the forbidden book Apocrypha of Yzarc (from the English word “Crazy” spelt backwards)—, and use his legions to put a stop to his actions.
- Victor Delacroix (French for “Champion of the Cross”) —once anticipated by the Order to be the next “Lord of the Sacred Glyphs”—; became a “fallen angel” in his dogged quest to purify the world by collecting the Three Sacred Glyphs. His personality changes and migration to the dark side seemed to be brought on by the death of his lover, Siela. The Order he once served —and thought so highly of him— is now his enemy, especially after he murders a leader of the Order and steals the Apocrypha of Yzarc. Eventually, Sieg confronts him…, and they face the tragedy of the past that stands between them.
- Siela Riviere (Lithuanian for "Soul" and French for "River") —a “Healer” and servant of the Order—; was the only one Sieg and Victor both could trust. However, she was killed in a tragic accident three years ago. She is only seen in “flashback” sequences during the course of the plot, and at the end, appearing as the final enemy.
- Arcia Rinslet —a Maiden of the Silver, one of several female warriors toting twin silver guns—; alongside her fellow Maidens, is dispatched by the “Intelligence of the Order” to purify towns of demons that have been unleashed by Victor. However, Intelligence was unaware that Arcia bears a vendetta against Victor, who recently slew her only brother. Alongside Sieg, she pursues him to avenge her family.
